-News for Thur 25 April to Fri. 26
April 2002 Editorial Children are precious and not born to become bombs. VOA states that the Palestinian militant group Hamas is calling on children not to attack Israeli settlements in the West Bank and Gaza Strip. In a statement, Hamas says the loss of too many children in such attacks would hurt the future of the Palestinian people. The article continues and indicates that in Gaza on Wednesday, Israeli soldiers killed three armed Palestinian boys who were trying to enter a Jewish settlement. The 13- and 14-year-old classmates left behind notes indicating they knew their action would be fatal. In a BBC news video clip of a Hamas leader announcing restraint to such children he is heard to say (paraphrase) that they should save themselves until they are older at which time they can attack Israel. It is obvious by these words that this Hamas leader - well fed, well spoken, well dressed, shaven, trimmed beard and clean appearance - has long term future aspirations of terror for the Israel nation. But what is most horrifying is the whole character of this little speech made before the BBC cameras and effectively the entire world. The Hamas leader obviously believes and is practicing "become a martyr by becoming a human bomb" child indoctrination. Who raises children in this manner? Who provided them with the bombs and who instructed them how to wear and use the bombs? Someone like this Hamas terrorist leader. If anyone in the western world were to teach their children this sort of thing their children would be taken from them by government welfare agencies and the parents taken to court and thrown into prison. This is worse than child slavery. Who dares to turn children into human bombs by raising them with this kind of terrorist mentality? In North America if we witness child abuse both sexual and physical then the parents, or care givers, or others responsible are prosecuted and the children taken from them. If we witness in our society under nourished, starving and dying children, because care is withheld the same thing happens. We raise multi millions of dollars by religious, government, and other care agencies just for children in need - world wide. But when this most hideous of crimes is committed by an anti Jewish terrorist populace we look the other way. How can we possibly look the other way or do we feel so sorry for the Palestinians that they can do no wrong? The western world is more concerned about alleged "possible" human rights violations committed by the Israel nation as they struggle and war against this form of terrorist. Is not this mentality towards children the greatest most insidious violation of human rights practiced anywhere in the world? Who knows of a worse crime against children than what is quickly becoming a common mentality in the Palestinian populace. How is it they can cry out about humanitarian issues while raising their children with this mentality. There is something very wrong here. UN!!! - Wake up UN! The obvious mentality of these terrorists is flaunted before the entire world and this world is obsessed with of all things the Israeli anti terrorist military effort at Jenin where an alleged but not substantiated massacre took place. Human rights activists and aid workers are offended by the effects of this war on the Palestinian communities, they cry foul, they cry out about human rights violations where ever they see any but they do not say one single word against this insidious and horrible crime being practiced by Palestinians with their own children. No wonder the Israeli government is distrustful of the UN and a hand picked committee to investigate Jenin. Do these workers serve the cause they profess or are their sympathies so totally with the Palestinians that they cannot see what the Palestinians are doing to their own children. This is not hate talk. This is fact. There have been numerous documentaries on TV that substantiate this from leading News Broadcasters in America. If poverty is the single most important reason for this terrorism coming primarily from poverty stricken Palestinian refugee camps then why has not Mr. Arafat been feeding this destitute part of the Palestinian population with the hundreds of millions of dollars of foreign aid he has received? Why has Mr. Arafat preferred to spend many dollars on arms, weapons, munitions, bombs, terrorist training, and the like sort of activity? Mr. Arafat, where is your heart? I believe his heart is filled with the hate of a Jewish state living next door. Has his attitude been anything significantly different than that of his Hamas leader that urged the children to wait until they were older and then they could kill Israeli citizens. What kind of sickness is this? Where is the so called civilized world on the issue of teaching children to hate, to grow up and be a martyr, to become of all things a human bomb? How come this is not considered a crime against humanity. When the world court system seeks and puts on trial leaders from Yugoslavia for human rights violations and ignores what the Palestinians are doing to their own children then we have a rampant hypocrisy and justice system administered out of revenge and secret agendas and not out of principle. And how is it that the PLA condoned act of strapping a bomb around yourself and then exploding your self in the midst of innocent children, their parents, and friends, and other citizens is not considered a crime against humanity. If these so called UN human aid workers believe in "rules", why are there not rules against this sort of thing and why is it that they are not offended by this sort of thing. What is wrong with these people. How can they be anything else but offended. Wake up UN!!! The only worse form of adult inhumanity is lining people up before a big hole and using a machine gun to get rid of them or putting them by the thousands and burning them in furnaces and gas chambers.
